This topic traces the location of system files and directories
from their location in SCO OpenServer
Release 5, to their location in
SCO UnixWare 2.0, and finally, to their current location in
UnixWare® 7.
Symbolic links exist between many old and new locations.
However, in future software releases,
these links may be removed.
The asterisk (
) means all files in the directory
indicated are in the location shown.
